The maximum reaction rates (Vmax) for the enzyme invertase were measured from samples at four temperatures. Test the hypothesis that there are no significant differences in the mean invertase reaction rates among temperatures at the 5% level of significance. (8 points)

1. What type of Analysis should you conduct to solve this problem? a. Two-Factor ANOVA b. One-Factor ANOVA c. Paired t-test d. Independent t-test
2. What are the sample sizes for each group? (n1, n2, n3, n4) a. 5, 4, 3, 4 b. 5, 8, 12, 8 c. 4, 5, 3, 4 d. 5, 4, 4, 3
3. What is the total sample size? a. 4 b. 5 c. 16 d. 12
4. What is the total average? a. 2.9840 b. 2.7640 c. 2.9063 d. 2.6500
5. What is the total Sum of all observations? a. 46.5 b. 34.0 c. 54.6 d. 45.2
6. Report the SS(group) value. a. 1.0778 b. 1.9578 c. 3.9520
One - Factor ANOVA we should conduct to solve this problem.
H0: Null Hypothesis: ( there are no significant differences in the mean invertase reaction rates among temperatures ) (Claim)
HA: Alternative Hypothesis: ( there are significant differences in the mean invertase reaction rates among temperatures )
From the given data,the following Table is calculated:
Temperature | N | Mean | Std. Dev. |
300 C | 5 | 2.62 | 0.4207 |
400 C | 4 | 2.85 | 0.4123 |
500 C | 4 | 3.30 | 0.7071 |
600 C | 3 | 2.9333 | 0.4163 |
From the above Table, ANOVA Table is calculated as follows:
Source of Variation | Degrees of Freedom | Sum of Squares | Mean Square | F | P Value |
Between Groups | 3 | 1.0447 | 1.0447/3=0.3482 | 0.3482/0.2554=1.3636 | 0.3008 |
WithinGroups | 12 | 3.0645 | 3.0645/12=0.2554 | ||
Total | 15 | 4.1092 |
Test Statistic is given by:
F = 0.3482/0.2554=1.3636
Degrees of Freedom for numerator =3
Degrees of Freedom for denominaor = 12
By Technology, P - Value = 0.3008
Since P - value = 0.3008 is greater than = 0.05, the difference is not significant. Fail to rejectnull hypothesis.
Conclusion:
The data support the claim that there are no significant
differences in the mean invertase reaction rates among
temperatures.
